Guess why Clinton bombed Iraq for 4 days (does that constitute an air war?): Clinton's Dec 16, 1998 Speech, US Military Force to attack Iraq's Nuclear, Chemical, Bio Weapons PBS ^ \| June 2, 2003 \| theeaglehaslanded Posted on 06/02/2003 9:59:56 PM PDT by TheEaglehasLanded PRESIDENT CLINTON: Good evening. Earlier today, I ordered America's armed forces to strike military and security targets in Iraq. They are joined by British forces. Their mission is to attack Iraq's nuclear, chemical and biological weapons programs and its military capacity to threaten its neighbors. Their purpose is to protect the national interest of the United States, and indeed the interests of people throughout the Middle East and around the world. Saddam Hussein must not be allowed to threaten his neighbors or the world with nuclear arms, poison gas or biological weapons. I want to explain why I have decided, with the unanimous recommendation of my national security team, to use force in Iraq; why we have acted now; and what we aim to accomplish. freerepublic.com
